WDA's Comments, 2014 Feb 04: The Roman Catholic Church owned this Bellanca through
RC Episcopal Corp. of the Mackenzie. Bishop Gabriel Breynat ofFmt Smith had a Waco ZQC-6
registered in his own name from Mar. 08, 1937 to Nov 18, 1939 (Ellis, J.R., Canadian Civil
Aircraft Registry). The Bellanca 31-42 Pacemaker in this photo was registered to the Roman
Catholic Episcopal Corporation of the Mackenzie, Fmt Smith from July 03, 1939 until August
23, 1940. In his book, (Flying Bishop, 50 years in the Canadian Far North, Bums, 1955.)
Breynat mentions both planes, but he seems not to have flown them himself. He calls this plane
Sancta Maria in the book but Santa Maria is the name painted on the plane in the photo. The
engine is being warmed by a gas burning pot or pots (stoves) under the engine cover (see photos
1 and 7 for more explanation). The person on top of the engine may be pouring heated engine oil
into the engine to help warm it up prior to starting it.

Milt Campbell's Audio Caption for photo: 13. "South Nahanni River Gang". From the left along the front row is John the Russian half kneeling at the front. Then next could be Jimmy but I'm not certain. Jimmy looked pretty white. Next is Harry. He grew a moustache. That is Sonny Field. And this is Rodney. It runs in my mind that his last name was Roberts. Rodney Roberts. He turned out to be quite an engineer later. Next to him is Hans Hansen. He was a little baker from Dawson Creek that was going up to Bear Lake to make his fortune. In the back row is Joe Clark the free trader. Nazar Zinchuk, of course. Mrs. George. And that chap in behind and between the two ladies, I just don't know. Mrs. Field That's Vera Turner. She's holding her hand up from the sun. She's waiting for her husband. Dick was up on the Nahanni somewhere. There's Bert Neeland. And I don't remember his name. And Arthur George. So we have two unknowns there.

WDA's Comments, 2013 Sep 11: To reiterate: front row l->r; John the Russian, Jimmy [maybe Jimmy Cholo? ], Harry Vandale, Dick "Sonny" Field [boy], Rodney Roberts and Hans Hansen. Back row l-r; Joe Clark, Nazar Zinchuk, Lodema George, unknown, Mrs. Mary Field, unknown but probably Poole Field with his signature hat, Vera Turner, Bert Neeland, unknown and Arthur George. This photo has more Nahanni characters in it than any other of which I aware.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar. 10: Dick Field was nearly always called Sonny. When I interviewed him in 1977 at Dawson City he was still called Sonny. So far as I know Sonny and Phoebe are the only two children of Poole and Mary Field. Phoebe subsequently drowned while ratting (muskrat hunting) in spring at Aklavik.

WDA's Comments, 2013 Oct. 12: The use of pack dogs offered flexibility in winter travel providing they have a packed trail to walk on. Bill Cormack describes this in his interview as does G. C. F. Dalziel (Dal). The flexibility came at a cost. Note the chains running from the trapper to the dogs to keep them from running off, primarily after game. The chains become burdensome to both trapper and dog and Dal describes how he managed his dogs so that they were rarely chained. The other problem with both pack dogs and dogs pulling a toboggan is dog food. They eat a lot of meat which requires plentiful big game—moose, caribou, Dall sheep mainly—available on a regular basis. In his interview Milt Campbell describes having to shoot his dogs when he couldn't get meat.

Caption on back of photo: There are two captions, the second in red pencil. "#13 - 1941. Canvas covered, the flume takes the creek's waters. With a tongue & groove bulkhead embedded in cement to clean swept bedrock, 99 % of the water swept over the flume. Bill Clark." "Intake completed"

Photographer: Carl Falcon

WDA's Comments, 2013 Jul 10: The completed flume carrying Bennett Creek over and beyond the pothole. The bulkhead, of vertical (right) and horizontal (left) tongue and groove Douglas Fir boards that were flown in just for this purpose was the last thing to be finished and it diverted Bennett Creek into the flume. The work tent was just beyond the bottom of the flume.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Feb 13: I suspect that this person is one of Charlie Hansen's two
uncles resident in Canada, either Maitin Bode with whom Charlie stayed a couple of years on his
homestead near Wanham, AB, or his uncle Emil Bode who was killed, along with his paitner
Gene Olson,on the Thelon River by an Eskimo [Inuk] (see C. Hansen interview). It also may be
Charlie's father. Whomever it is, there is a facial resemblance to Charlie.

The file consists of correspondence regarding the Great Slave Lake Fish Co. Ltd. and Great Slave Lake Advisory Committee Minutes and Decisions.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Feb 13: Charlie found out about his uncles murder whem an RCMP
officer came to his uncle Maiiin's homestead near Wanham to tell them. This photograph may
have been from the RCMP investigation.

Charlie's photo description: That's Fred Patsi sitting, first one right in the front with the slick
hair. His old man [father], I never knew him as anything but Old Patsi They lived across the river
by Modess' house. He was the one that used to like to sit down and talk. They talk about the
Indians [Dene] being behind and all that. Patsi told me that his people used stone axes. His folks used
stone axes. They told him that they used stone axes. So that's his son here, Fred Patsi. The one in
the back is George Modess. The other one on the right looks like Julian Hardisty. I'm pretty sure
that's Julian. He has some connection with Patsi. George Modess is sitting with a Hitler haircut,
pointing. I don't remember who took that picture.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Feb 13: The spelling Patsi is as given in Posset, Fr. H. 1973. Lenoirs

Charlie's photo description: That's the Mounted Policeman. I kind of thought it was Joe
Garripy [ spelling unknown] at first but now I'm not sure. I think it is. I know the face but it just
won't come to me. You can show it around. There's lots of people know that boy.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar 04: In his interview Charlie describes "little Red" Wolstenholm,
the cook for the Signals (RCCS). This chap appears to be a cook and not very big, suggesting
that this might be Wolstenholme.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar 04: This group of Dene men in a tent appear to be performing
some ceremony. Small sticks are on the light coloured flat area in Photo 138. Therefore, they
may may be gambling at the native [Dene handgames] stick game, but it could also be some other cultural activity.
Consultation with Fort Simpson Dene may shed some light on this. It is very difficult to see
anything in this photo.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar 04: In his interview Charlie describes how Dene came into Fort
Simpson over Christmas-New Year. Very few kept cabins in town. The majority of Dene were
loyal traders at the either the HBC or Northern Traders. Each company kept an "Indian House"
with a stove and firewood where the visitors could find shelter and warmth while in town. People
slept on the floor. On Christmas eve the Dene would visit all traders as well as the Indian
Agency and sometimes RCCS and receive tobacco, small gifts, tea and bannock or donuts.
About 100 people or fewer, parents and children, would snake through the town from place to
place, stopping for tea, food and conversation. Any trading would be done before or after
Christmas. They returned to their traplines some time after the festivities were over.
Walter Hall, an ingenious man who worked for NT prior to Charlie's arrival in 1932. He
constructed a hoist and trolley from an old mine cart to bring NT freight from the beach up into
the town. His workshop was in the shed-roofed portion of the building. See interview for details.
